Colour and Colour.

I’m trying to wear more colour and less black lately. Dress, Zellers Cardi, F21 Watch, BF’s G-Shock Shoes, Payless It’s working out well, I think! Slightly more adventursome for me, but I like finding ways that colours go together and go with my hair. Speaking of, yesterday (June 30), I spent the day making a slight change. Out with the pink, in with the .. well, i won’t spoil it. It’s great, though! This post is going up on Canada day, and I’ll be spending it with Lauren, doing nothing patriotic, sadly. I may check out the fireworks tonight if … Continue reading Colour and Colour.

Pantalones

No colour today. Too tired for colours. Pants, Old Navy Tee, La Vie En Rose Cardi, Wal-Mart Watch, bf’s G-Shock Shoes, H&M Socks, Betsey Johnson Pretty sure you can see how tired I am. Sometimes, there’s just not enough sleep in the whole world to keep me going. I don’t think I’ve eaten a tonne of the delicious wheat, but lately I feel drained and sick every day. It’s moderately unpleasant. Still, I’ll keep plugging away. I may try to be even better about the foods, and with summer here I’ve felt a major desire to do some physical outdoor … Continue reading Pantalones

ORANGE

I don’t usually wear a tonne of colour, and I’m trying to change that, so when I saw this dress at … Loblaws… I was like “Ornge! I want this!” and it was only $16, and it looked comfy, so why not. The cut is not super flattering, but I’ll play with it in the future, this was just a test run. Dress, Joe Fresh Sandals, iPanema by Gisele Cardi, F21 Sweater Guard, Etsy Ring, came with a bottle of nailpolish Also check out this awesome pasta! We saw it at the atwater market on the weekend and picked it … Continue reading ORANGE

June Glymm

Cat helped me with the Glymm bo-aag this month. She’s very helpful. LaFresh Acetone-Free Nail Polish Remover Clark’s Botanicals Smoothing Marine Cream Salvador Dali ItIsDream Perfume Vitamine & Sea Perfect Skin Solution Belvada Duo Lipstick | Harmony The duo lipstick is super cute, I love the packaging and the snappy way to get the colour or balm out. It wears great, too, doesn’t clump up or sink into the creases of my lips. Glymm’s new green-initiative replaces the usual cards with a small one, letting us know that the products will be listed online. I’m totally down with this. I … Continue reading June Glymm

May Glossy

CUREL – CUREL FOOT CREAM SIMPLE – EYE MAKE-UP REMOVER SIMPLE – REFRESHING FACIAL WASH GEL BOXX COSMETICS – CREAM CORRECTOR SEBASTIAN PROFESSIONAL – VOLUPT SHAMPOO So, Glossy is clearly a service specializing in drugstore brands, which I didn’t initially realize, but I am totally okay with. The sizes of the samples seem quite large, and I get a really good idea of how they use. I’m quite pleased with the makeup remover, and the concealer / corrector product. They got my skintone right this time, and the makeup remover doesn’t burn my eyes at all! Huzzah! I’m terrified to … Continue reading May Glossy

Oatmeal

None of these photos are flattering, but that’s okay. Shoes & Dress, H&M Cardi, Joe Fresh Brooch, Malabar Sweater Guard & Bracelet, Trove Tights, We Love Colours Watch, Hello Kitty I was having a pretty good time, my lovely photographerman was being cheeky, and we were playing about. So I look cheerful, but goofy. The dress is so comfy, it’s made of this like, almost sweatpantsy material. I’ve since resolved not to buy from H&M, because blah blah ethics, but every day I think “I’m just one lady, surely they don’t miss my purchases. I should buy a dress”. I … Continue reading Oatmeal

June’s Julep IT Girl box. The polishes are.. Sasha, fresh, cantaloupe melon creme. Morgan, frosty grape purple. Sandra, friendly, frosted magenta.

I’ve been wanting a nice cantaloupey colour for a while now, and this one is pretty perfect. Two coats to opaque, and jives … Continue reading June Julep IT Girl
